The Top 10
1 Captain America #12 – Mark Spears – Magic The Gathering Virgin (1:50)
Mark Spears returns to the top of our list! In a classified solicit, this cover was hidden from retailers at FOC. Due to it being a classified cover, there wasn’t much motivation to order in large volumes as this was all under wraps. It was only once the books were received by retailers that it was realized this book was a big deal! It features Mark Spears’ first artwork on a Marvel cover! Since the cover was withheld, it is likely that there aren’t many 1:50 retailer incentives floating around. This makes the hunt for this cover a real tough one. We tracked 17 copies sold, at a 7-day growth trend of 356% with a high sale of $300 for a NM copy and a current raw NM FMV of $174.
2 Captain America #12 – Mark Spears – Magic The Gathering
This cover was also classified; however, as an open order, more retailers were willing to order this over 1:50 covers. As it became revealed that this was Mark Spears’ first Marvel cover, the stands were emptied! The next best place for fans to secure a copy was in the aftermarket. This book has been moving very well on the aftermarket, as everyone is looking to nab a copy of Spears’ first Marvel cover. We tracked 31 copies sold, at a 7-day growth trend of 276% with a high sale of $16 for a NM copy and a current raw NM FMV of $11.
3 Fireborn #3 – Jarret Hartnell
If you were a fan of the LOST FANTASY series, then you have probably been collecting the FIREBORN series. FIREBORN just dropped a major key for collectors: the first appearance of the major villain, Nekros. Nekros was introduced as the leader of the “Children of Eternal Night”, using dark magic to hunt down the main hero of the story, Aaron Hillburg. This variant cover features the villain front and center. This book also has another key moment, with the first team appearance of the Children of the Eternal Night. It’s a great collector’s item for fans of the series! We tracked 15 copies sold, at a 7-day growth trend of 218% with a high sale of $16 for a NM copy and a current raw NM FMV of $12.
